Hi, I'm trying to get my program to compile with ghc-9.8.2. Raising the upper bounds of my dependencies I'm running into a compile error for the unix-2.8.5.1 package: [15 of 53] Compiling System.Posix.Env.PosixString ( /home/dan/sources/unix-2.8.5.1/dist-newstyle/build/x86_64-linux/ghc-9.8.2/unix-2.8.5.1/build/System/Posix/Env/PosixString.hs, /home/dan/sources/unix-2.8.5.1/dist-newstyle/build/x86_64-linux/ghc-9.8.2/unix-2.8.5.1/build/System/Posix/Env/PosixString.o, /home/dan/sources/unix-2.8.5.1/dist-newstyle/build/x86_64-linux/ghc-9.8.2/unix-2.8.5.1/build/System/Posix/Env/PosixString.dyn_o ) System/Posix/Env/PosixString.hsc:45:1: error: [GHC-87110] Could not load module ‘System.OsString.Internal.Types’.

Thanks for any hints! Greetings, Daniel
